What is the name of your state? pa
i am taking my old employer to small claims court to retrieve approx $1500 in commissions unpaid. i left the company 6 months ago. i was going to stay in the same business but after dealing with so much harrassment about stealing proprietary info and other reasons i decided it was not worth it. (i had no non-compete and the only information that was passed was either public info or information that was given to me by an employee that still worked there)
after talking to a few attorneys briefly they saw no reason why i shouldn't take my old employers to small claims to collect my commissions. i gave them a last chance letter, and they responded with an email to me saying they would see me in court with a counter suit.
Can you counter sue on a small claim to get a commission check? it doesn't seem right. If they are claiming I passed proprietary info I would think that would be a separate suit. can anyone help or is more information needed?
